Looking forward to watching Christon who just got a really nice write up by columnist Mark Titus over at Grantland Sports, calling him the BE's Best Pro Prospect — Semaj Christon (Xavier): http://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/9859284/mark-titus-previews-2013-14-ncaa-basketball-season-starting-big-east.

Markel Starks, Gtown and Ryan Arcidiacono, Villanova are solid choices.

As a Friar Fan, the addition of Kris Dunn to this watch list is no surprise. A true Sophomore, he was recovering from shoulder surgery when he finally suited up for us last year and his game improved significantly as the season rolled on - especially on defense. He definitely needs to work on his shooting but he is a big PG, (true 6' 4-5") who plays big and plays fast and strong.

He was a McD All American coming in very highly rated and so we have a lot of hope he will emerge this year and if the Friars are going to have a chance to dance he is seen by many as the key player who will make that difference. Here is the running total of a small poll we are presently conducting over on our PC Friar Fan Forum: http://friartownhoops.proboards.com/thread/2794/cotton-excluded-pick-player-friars
